InStyle LED’s 20-watt RGBW LED tape has 60 LEDs per metre, each one housing four LED chips of different colours (RGBW stands for ‘red, green, blue, white’). RGBW LED tape gives you more colour control than ever – letting you select every shade of the spectrum by mixing red, green and blue… while giving you the option of a perfect white light from dedicated white LEDs. And having an additional white chip in each LED also opens up an unlimited range of pastel colours that the three primary colours couldn’t create on their own, as well as the ability to mix your preferred shades of white.

At InStyle, we offer two varieties of RGBW LED tape – with different whites, so you can choose exactly the right colour palette for your home or other project.

With a total wattage of 20w per metre, this LED tape will produce a massive 1440 lumens per metre when all four colours are at full brightness. With the four colours mounted in each SMD (as opposed to 2 separate runs), this LED tape mixes light at source – which means you’ll get smooth consistent colour when the light falls on any surface just a short distance away (around 20mm).

Drawing 24 volts, InStyle’s LED tape is 12mm wide and 3mm in depth. We only use commercial-grade components, including branded high-quality Epistar SMDs and thicker 3-ounce printed circuit boards to efficiently disperse heat. This means our LED tapes really do achieve a genuine lifetime of 70% @ 50,000 hours use.

RGBW LED tape is available on 5m standard reels, with cut-points every 100mm. There’s no minimum order, and InStyle can assist you with your project from start to finish with advice and technical help – we’ll even supply your LED tape in easy-to-fit kit form, pre-cut and soldered to the lengths you need.

All of Instyle’s products are in stock with a 2 year warranty.

InStyle’s LED tape is ideal for homes, restaurants, clubs, bars, hotels, and signage. And the list doesn’t end there – with the complete control it offers, this RGBW LED Tape can be used anywhere!

Controlling your LED Tape

inStyle LED has the ultimate choice of professional control gear for your LED tape. Choose from:

DMX:

InStyle stocks 4-channel DMX 512 decoders, specifically made to work with our RGBW LED tape. They’ll allow you to use your own DMX controller, or one of our DMX touch wall-panel controllers. With DMX control you can use your own computer software, a night club DMX desk, a touch panel or any other compatible interface. The choices are endless.

RF Multizone controller:

Our multizone controller will let you select any shade of any colour, control separate zones (up to 10) independently, fully dim your LEDs, programme colour scrolls, and much more – all wirelessly! Check it out here…

RF Touch panel:

With the RGBW touch panel controller, you can manage up to 4 zones independently, selecting all shades of any colour. And you can fully dim your LEDs, programme colour scrolls and more. See more details on our product page.

LED strips are designed to be very flexible. Their PCBs (printed circuit boards) are so robust that many LED tape products can be bent up to 90 degrees with no difficulty.

Be aware that higher-power LED strips are less flexible than lower-power ones. This is because the LED modules are placed closer together on high-power strips, and require wider PCBs (for more heat dispersal).

For this type of LED tape you will require just a transformer to get this working. You connect the 2 core starter lead coming out of one end. This is then wired to the transformer, red wire goes to + and the black wire is wired to -. The 2 core cable can be extended as required for you to mount the transformer as far away as required.

For more information, choose one of these links for support and advice on how to install either simple or larger LED tape projects.

Deciding on which wattage you require is all down to what kind of application you are fitting the LED tape in.

The 5w and 10w is ideal to be used as feature lighting. Lighting to highlight areas, as a secondary lighting. Ideal for covings, drop down ceilings signage etc. to give a smooth halo effect. The 10w would be preferred to the 5w for these applications if there is a high amount of ambient lighting.

The 15w and 20w is ideal to be used as general lighting or as feature lighting for areas larger than covings etc. For example washing down front bars / back bars / under kitchen cabinet lighting as ‘working light’

IP67 Heat-shrink type is required in areas where you will need resistance to water. For example bathrooms, kitchens and exterior. The heatshrink version is waterproof but it cannot be submersed, for example in a pond. The IP67 Heat-shrink is a protective coating over the LED tape, this makes it easy to wipe to clean etc.

All the LED strips are cuttable. Each can be cut at various points, either 50mm,100mm,150mm or 200mm depending on whitch wattage version you have. We can either cut the lengths to your specific lengths as required or you can do this yourself. Once cut to length to join this to a transformer or another piece you will need to be capable of soldering, or if not we also supply 2 types of clips. One type is a starter lead clip, which is s clip that joins onto the off cut and has a cable coming out of it. The other clip is a ‘tape to tape clip’, this clip joins 2 pieces together.

If you’ve ordered your LED tapes cut to custom lengths from us, with all the starter-leads and flexible leads for corners that your project requires, then you’ve most likely got everything you need already!

7.5-Watt RGB LED Tape

Our 7.5w RGB LED tape has 30 branded 5050 tri LEDs per metre. so it’s great for feature lighting in clubs, bars and restaurants, and in the home. Use it to light alcoves, ceilings and more.

10-Watt RGBW LED Tape

Outputting up to 665 lumens per metre of LED tape, these 10-watt RGBW LED strip lights produce an ideal level of illumination for highlights and other decorative lighting applications.

15-Watt RGB LED Tape

With twice the output of 7.5w tapes, our 15-watt RGB LED tape is ideal for areas where more brightness is required or where there is a lot of strong ambient lighting. 60 branded 5050 tri-SMDs per metre.

20-Watt White LED Tape

Twice as bright as 10-watt LED tape, our 20-watt white LED strips are ideal for use as general or ‘working light’. They draw 19.2w to output up to 1440 lumens (per metre).

I have used this LED Tape in several rooms around my home. I went for the RGBWW(warm) 20w type as advised by John and have to say I couldn't be happier. The goods arrived next day, John spoke to my electrician and answered any questions he had, and finally the lights are exceptional. Bright enough to use as general lighting with also the option to add a hint of colour when required. I couldn't recommend this any more highly.
